"Equipped with the latest DIGIC 7 image processor, users of the PowerShot
G7 X Mark II are empowered with near DSLR-level functionalities that will allow
them to take stunningly beautiful pictures in different styles with ease. For
example, users now have access to panning capabilities and RAW to JPEG
conversion within a compact camera, providing them greater ease and convenience
in use,” said Edwin Teoh, Head of Marketing, Singapore Operations, Canon
Singapore.

Astounding
DSLR-quality images provided by the new DIGIC 7 processor

Equipped with the latest DIGIC 7 Processor, the PowerShot G7 X Mark II is
capable of delivering excellent photos of DSLR standards. With this chip, users
can take crisp shots even in low-light conditions, as it can take photos at
higher ISO speeds with greatly reduced noise, with camera and body shake
virtually eliminated with its enhanced IS performance.

The new DIGIC 7 Processor in the PowerShot G7 X Mark II also enhances subject
detection and tracking performance both automatically and specified by touch,
ensuring that every movement will be captured in sharp focus. Tracking
performance has also been improved to include animals and objects as well,
making it an ideal camera for live shooting scenarios.

Two other components contribute to the PowerShot G7 X Mark II’s superb
image quality: a larger than usual 1.0-inch CMOS sensor and a premium large
diameter f/1.8-f/2.8 4.2x zoom lens. These two components make the most of
their larger size to provide the DIGIC 7 with enough visual data to capture beautifully
blurred backgrounds and details that would be impossible on a regular compact
camera with a small sensor and standard lenses.

Enhanced user operability

The PowerShot G7 X Mark II is designed with a control ring around the
camera lens to provide a tactile feel and more stable control of the camera. The
control ring enables quick adjustments on settings such as shutter speed,
aperture, manual focus, and zoom. Users
can easily toggle between step and continuous control ring movement[1]using a switch on the side of the lens.

Operating the camera is effortless using the PowerShot G7 X Mark II’s
touch screen LCD and its easily accessible functions or settings. The 1.04
million dots tiltable LCD screen also offers greater versatility to frame shots
from any angle – 180 degrees for selfies, or 45 degrees and lower for shots
from a higher angle.

Feature-filled PowerShot
G7 X Mark II enables creativity

The PowerShot G7 X Mark II also enables users to take time-lapse photos
easily in three pre-set scenes with different shooting intervals – 1 to 4
seconds, 5 to 10 seconds, and 11-30 seconds in Scenes 1, 2, and 3 respectively.
With the new Time-Lapse Movie feature, users will have the option of enabling
exposure tracking, in which exposure will be calculated for each shot,
resulting in a smoother transition when capturing day-to-night Time-Lapse
movies.

Users who want to take panning shots can do so easily with the new PowerShot
G7 X Mark II. The PowerShot G7 X Mark II is intelligent enough to analyse the
subject’s speed of movement and the camera’s panning speed, and automatically
configures the camera settings to reduce blurring of the subject. This is achieved
by altering the shutter speed or IS accordingly, resulting in a motion-blurred
background that conveys a good impression of movement and speed, whilst the
subject remains sharp in the foreground.

The PowerShot G7 X Mark II features a convenient in-camera RAW to JPEG conversion
function. Coupled with its ability to process and convert multiple images
simultaneously, this compact camera is sure to provide users with even greater
convenience and productivity. Users can also adjust their images’ colour settings
and apply photo effects through the PowerShot G7 X Mark II’s Picture Style
feature before saving as a JPEG. These settings can also be saved and reused
for future photos as well.

Pricing and availability

Pricing and availability of
the PowerShot G7 X Mark II will
be announced at a later date.

[1] Step
movements are well suited for adjustment of numerical values such as shutter
speed and apertures due to the click of the control ring, while continuous
moment is preferred when making minute adjustments such as focusing or
adjusting the desired blur setting such as in the Panning mode.
